Ingredients
- 2 medium (about 300g) Zucchini
- 200 grams Mushrooms
- 6 large Eggs
- 3 large Egg whites
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 2 cloves Garlic
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley
- 2 tablespoons Parmesan cheese (optional)
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Step 2
Wash the zucchini and slice them into thin rounds. Clean the mushrooms and slice them evenly.
Step 3
Mince the garlic and finely chop the fresh parsley.
Step 4
Heat a medium oven-safe non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the olive oil and sauté the garlic for 1 minute until fragrant.
Step 5
Add the sliced zucchini and mushrooms to the skillet. Cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are softened and slightly golden. Remove from heat.
Step 6
In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, egg whites, salt, black pepper, and chopped parsley. If using, stir in the Parmesan cheese for extra flavor.
Step 7
Pour the egg mixture over the vegetables in the skillet, ensuring the eggs are evenly distributed.
Step 8
Place the skillet in the preheated oven and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the frittata is puffed up and the center is set.
Step 9
Remove the skillet from the oven and let it cool for 5 minutes before slicing into wedges.
Step 10
Serve the frittata warm, garnished with additional parsley, if desired.
